-THE RED HOOD-

But guys like us? The life we lead? We're never truly alone. Every day is a fresh horror. Every memory a nightmare. Even when it is just the two of us... There's a pasty-faced clown sitting in the corner of the room, just laughing. At us.

___ dick looked between the things jason had given him for the mission. he was supposed to be an important ceo who wanted to do business with one of the groups that red hood was tracking. but he hated everything about the plan. starting with the fact that he had to wear a wig and contact lenses. “was there no other way?” he asked, trying to straighten his hair so the dirty blonde wig could follow. if something went wrong, the odds of escaping unscathed from a club like the one his brother had mentioned were slim to none. even just getting out was a low possibility. what if he wore his suit under his clothes, as clark used to do before? nah. “you know what? i’ll give you that.” he shrugged. “repeat the plan while i get ready. don’t wanna miss anything.”

"You can put on a damn orange wig and you would still look good. So stop complaining." Jason rolled his eyes. If it was Bruce who was asking him, Dick wouldn't complain as much. But that was something he was going to keep to himself because it was not time for a fight. "We're going to an almost private place. I'm not lying to you, possibly things that are not planned will happen, because of the atmosphere of the place, but I'm not going to leave your side. You just have to stay in character." He walked over to the suit on the table, patiently since they had plenty of time. Everything was planned, but the gods knew that things never went as he expected, so the fact that Dick was as good as him at improvising, was something in their favor. Another thing he kept to himself. "You just have to be charming and let yourself go. The only thing I need is for them to take us to where they have what I need and that's it. I can't move without having that security. And after that, we are leaving." It sounded simple. But it wasn't and Jason knew that at least Dick was very clear about that. If they didn't do it perfectly and one little thing failed... Well, it was better not to take that possibility into account. They were two against possibly dozens. Lovely odds.

“ we can take a break, if you want.”

"Why are you making it sound like I'm the one who clearly needs a break?" Jason smirked and kissed his boyfriend's cheek, resting his weight on one of his knees and turning to the side to lie down next to him. "It’s because you’re getting old." He said jokingly. Axel was only over two years older than him, but he still liked to tease with that. He reached out to grab a cig, holding it between his lips for the other to light it for him while his other hand reached for the blanket to cover his torso. He always felt totally comfortable with Axel and didn’t hide about himself, but that was something he still couldn’t stop doing. "I have a question for you that I definitely shouldn't be asking right now. But who would I be if I didn't do the wrong thing, right?"

“ i’m listening…”

Jason raised an eyebrow and held the silence between the two of them, keeping his eyes on Roy's as he waited. What was he waiting for? That Roy miraculously forgot the subject? "I was distracted." Which was not a lie. But it wasn't the whole truth either. The truth was, he made a bad decision going to that place by himself when he knew he needed, at least, reinforcements. It didn't cost him anything to have called someone, but he was impulsive. "Instead of listening. Why don't you help me?" He said as he pointed to the knife on his thigh. He could pull it out himself without a problem, but he couldn't walk and was grateful that Roy had somehow appeared. "Help me get to my base, everything will be fine. If you can make Axel not be there to see me, even better."

Thor was good in a lot of things, fighting for his people, being a good king, drinking, finding his way around town when he was on earth was not on those things, all the streets look the same, it had been a while since the last time he had time to visit and nothing looked the same, when he nitoce someone staring at him Thor walked toward the person. “Hi.” he said with a big smile. “Could you help me, I’m not sure where I am.”

[ofrcdhoods]

Jason was not used to many things - having a stranger speak to him on the street was one of those. His face normally wore an unfriendly expression, or so was what his friends said. But it was probably true, so when a man approached him, he was taken by surprise. "Uh." The face was familiar to him, but he honestly wasn't going to bother remembering. "Well, you're in front of the place with the best donuts and coffee in all of New York." He said as he accepted his request, pointing to the donut to support his point. "Where do you need to go?"

          skulking on rooftops. it was a trademark of his family and damian was hardly an exception. looking over new york from a high vantage point was helpful. it didn’t hurt that it had so many to choose from. he wasn’t in costume, not yet. but it would be an easy switch if he saw something that brought the need forward. it wasn’t much of a hint, many would have missed it but he was damian wayne. he didn’t miss things. including the fact he wasn’t alone. “are you going to continue hiding or face me?” he challenged the other, withholding the word coward only for the fact that he wasn’t jumping to assumptions just yet. for all he knew it could have been an ally. it also could have been an enemy, and he was prepared for that as well. “show yourself.” 

[ofrcdhoods]

It was only a matter of time before the rest of the batclan started showing up in new york, so it didn't surprise him to see a certain little demon running around. The fact that he reached the same rooftop as him was a separate matter. "Who would hide from you?" He said teasingly, lighting a cigarette after removing the mask he used over his mouth. It was a quiet night, if he was in full gear, it was just as a precaution. Or because it was more comfortable, if he was going to be at a certain height. "Isn't it too late for you, boy? Don't tell me I have to call Dick to pick you up."

[ofrcdhoods]

“ you’re coming with me.” 

@catalystofchangc​

"Of course." Jason pointed to the clothes on the table. A suit and dark glasses to be exact. "The meeting is for the great businessman Dave Walters and his bodyguard." He said while pointing at himself now. It was a somewhat risky mission, but if there was anyone who could act well enough to help him, it was Dick. The good thing is that the other owed him several favors, so he couldn't say no, no matter how crazy the idea was. And this was at the top of the absurd. But it was worth it, if he could have access to the person he had been tracking for three weeks. "Start getting ready. It's a flattering change, I seriously did better than Bruce." The undercover ideas of man ... It was better to leave them in oblivion.

___ “you would be a great dad, jason. maybe you don’t have the best way to do things, depending on where one stands, but you are a good person. and you know that.” red hood’s methods were different from his and that established a line between them years ago, but now it was something dick could deal with. he didn’t stand for it, but at least he knew the reasons behind it. “i’m not asking them for nephews. you’re the one settled down and drowning in money.” the oldest robin handed the baby girl to his brother, looking at the twins immediately holding hands when they were close enough. “yeah… i guess i’ll have to wait until they are old enough and see what they want. but honestly, i’m leaning towards keeping them as far away from that as possible.”

___ Jason held the baby girl and paid attention to how her small hand found her brother's in a matter of seconds. He had never held such small babies, he had hardly held Lian when she was two years old. It was a strange feeling, but it wasn't bad. "I don't think so." Although it was a conversation to have with Axel later. If his boyfriend wanted more children, they had to consider that. But Jason was going to lengthen it as much as possible, as he always did. "Before, you said you didn't think you could have something real or settle down because Nightwing always came first." He took a seat on the bed again, his eyes never leaving the twins. They were possibly the most adorable thing he had ever seen. "What's going to happen to that? Nightwing and the Titans are still a thing?"

Rachel looked down pouting slightly he boyfriend certainly came with a title but at the same time, being a demon wasn’t something new Jason knew of her past just like Dick did. “He is a Prince of Hell…..” She mused before looking up at him “I bumped into him while going to Hawkeyes coffee shop, then he asked if he could buy my tea as an apology for knocking my book out of my hands. Princes of Hell are quite real, My father was banished by them out of Hell, we share that in common, I banished him from Earth and they kicked him out of hell.” She chuckled softly “Well, of course, at least you have Mila as a barrier, you know Dick is a sucker for kids, all I have is a demon prince to bring home, You both are gonna rip into him.” 

___ Jason heard the story Rachel was telling and raised an eyebrow at the mention of Trigon. The demon was a difficult subject to deal with for many common humans and the meta. "So these... Princes, are like the most powerful thing down there?" Where was hell, really? It was common to think that it was below and heaven above, but wasn't that just a Christian belief? Many questions, little patience. Still, he had more patience than Dick. "As long as you're okay, I'm not going to give the guy a hard time. Besides, you can also lean on the little ones, if you think about it." Getting along with children meant points in favor with adults. At least I knew that with Roy it could be like that.

Rachel looked around the house, she had been glad to hear that Jason had found love, especially with someone as cool as Axel and Mila. Their house seemed homey sharing both of their personality mixing well together before she rolled her eyes huffing “Uncle Jay you promised to stop stalking me!” she chuckled before moving closer to Jason “His name is Leviathan, but he prefers Levi, He is currently the A Prince of Hell, the embodiment of Envy….and he treats me with so much respect it makes me question his demonic nature….” She looked at the other chuckling “Oh please you’ll allow Dick to dig into him if it means you and Axel cost by.”

At the name, Jason simply raised an eyebrow. But at the title... “A what of what?” He continued with the salad, trying not to think much about it. Rachel was the daughter of a powerful demon so, he guessed there were more. Not that he could have a closed mind when a freaking pit brought him back to life. “How did you get to meet a whatever from hell? Those things are really here?” As long as she was okay, Jason didn’t care much about who he was. If he was good to the girl he had grown to adore as part of his family, then he was fine. “He hasn’t spoken to Axel in that ‘I’m the oldest so, I’m in charge’ tone yet. We will both be dealing with that.”

“I hope you’re ready because you might have to come along for her ice skating practices now.” Axel teases briefly, even if the weather was warm out she could make her own ice rink in a field somewhere if she wished to — the perk to having ice manipulation abilities. “She does have a lot of things though so that will happen, many toys, trophies, and clothes. We will need a bigger bed. I would much rather sleep next to you every night than in separate rooms.” He says while kissing the top of Jason’s head. They could go shopping to pick out sheets together — how domestic is that? Axel kind of loves it. “I hope that he does like me, but we will see, won’t we? I’ve been a good boy lately even since I’m between henchmen jobs. So there’s no reason to not like me.” He laughs for a moment, but alright maybe being with Jason made him want to be better. “They can get matching outfits! Oh how cute would that be, babe?”

"I would love to." Jason smiled softly at the idea of sharing those times with them. He liked being part of a family and although he still didn't fully assimilate the idea of being able to become a father figure for Mila, it made him feel happy. Deep inside, it was a dream he had always had. Something he yearned for. "I think Bruce got to an age where he doesn't look for so many things to be angry about. I mean, they already upgraded him to grandpa. It's a heavy title." He shrugged. "Why don't you work with me? And I mean by my side, not as a henchman." 

[ofrcdhoods]

@trigonsgem​

Not everything in the new house was yet ready, but at least the kitchen could be used without problem. Jason figured that inviting Rachel to dinner was the best idea before the inevitable family dinner. "So, are you going to tell me about the guy or am I going to have to ask questions?" He said as he finished the salad, something simple but perfect for the chicken he prepared. Thanks to Alfred, for the culinary teachings. "Think of it this way. I'd better figure out who he is now, rather than meet him on that night Dick is planning."

___ dick couldn’t help but smile, seeing jason with john. hands that normally held weapons to kill, were now being the softest while changing a baby. the confusion his brother worked with was really adorable and transported him back to those days where an innocent jason todd tried to imitate the things that nightwing did. “and i’m sure you were also born to be a father.” he said with a raised eyebrow, waiting for the other’s reaction but immediately changing his expression to one not so happy. “my children are going to be as far away from firearms as possible.” he said as he held up birdie. “i’m not even sure i want them to lead a life of vigilantes. lethal or not." 

"Erase that face or I can take it away with a single punch." That face was received not only from Dick from time to time, but also from Alfred when he visited the manor in his spare time. And when he knew that Bruce wasn't around. Perhaps the Pit had caused many changes in him physically, but some other things had remained of that boy who was surprised by everything and was way too curious. "Yeah... No." He thought he was good to Mila, but that was because Axel had raised her all the years before. What would he do with a baby? Probably not a good idea. "Ask Tim or Cass for nephews. Damian, I don't think we want little demon spawns like him around, do we?" Jason joked, also knowing the first Robin's weakness for the little Wayne. "Hey, I'm not complaining about the life I have right now. But, and I'm just saying, if I hadn't insisted on being a child soldier for a man in a bat suit, I wouldn't have died in the first place. So, that's my opinion on that, if anything."

for @ofrcdhoods

          bruce wasn’t an idiot, and he was honestly a little insulted that his kids even tried to hide anything from him. he knew about the fire at the orphanage and even the gang jason was running, but he decided to stay out of it. he tried to keep the police away as best he could, hoping that jason would tone it down some. bruce knocked on the door of jason’s place, a bag of goodies from alfred on his arm. “come on jay, i know you’re in there.”

[ofrcdhoods]

Jason knew it was a matter of time before Bruce showed up at his door, probably with enough information to carry a judgmental expression with him. He knew that ignoring him wasn't enough - with that family that was like waiting for a miracle. None were as extra as Dick, who was able to break a window just to get in, but they were still intense. So he waited a few moments and then stretched, before picking up Mila's stuffed animals that were all over the floor. "I am not hiding." He said as he opened the door, the image of Bruce just like he remembered it. He wasn't going to lie, he was trying to dodge the man as much as he could, but wasn't running from him or something like that. Their ways of working were different and that was something that had been clear for quite some time. Unless Red Hood was going to help the other vigilantes on a special mission, it wasn’t going to change. "Welcome to New York, B-man. My house, your house and all that." He stepped to the side, making room for the other to enter.

Axel felt like nothing could possibly ruin this moment, feeling like anything is possible. He didn’t know for the longest time what his future would look like, but now the Mutant was pretty certain. His eyes watch as Mila leaves the sofa, probably going to play in her room. “How about this week? We can start moving our stuff over.” Axel smiles as the distance between them is gone. His hand reaching out to pull Jason closer — kissing him back. There was nowhere he would rather be then here. “Oh? I finally get to meet him? I’ll be on my best behavior. Do you want Mila to come too? She likes to dress up. I hope he approves of me. I’m more than ready.”

"Sounds perfect. I actually hope that all of Mila's things fill the place. Practically the only thing that I took with me was my bed and clothes." Jason frowned, though. A thought coming as fast as that was said. "I suppose a bigger bed is now among the things to buy. Unless you prefer to sleep in another room." He said teasingly, resting his head on Axel's shoulder for a moment. Just thinking about a 'family reunion' made his stomach turn a little. No place was too big for all the contrasts that were going to be there and he didn't know if the changes they had made in the last months came to alleviate that or not. "No one has to approve of you. If he likes you, good. And if not, it's his problem. He has no vote in what I do." He shrugged and returned to his previous position so he could see the man. Okay, maybe he could accept that Bruce's opinion could still affect him at a certain degree, but that was because of that part of the fifteen-year-old boy seeking refuge that was still in him. A very small part, but many times it came out. "I'll ask Roy if he wants to dress Lian too. It can be a cute image to change the possible horrible tension in the place."
